Overview
The Summary area shows you the following:
- Balance Forward - This is the Credit Balance for the prior period up to the start date of your Date Range selected
- Credit Issued - This is the total Credit created for the Client (includes all Credit Notes, Overpayment and Prepayment Credits)
- Credit Applied - This is the total Credit applied as payment on Invoices for that Client. If you need to track down the specific Invoices that have Credit applied as payment, run a Client Account Statement instead
- Credit Balance - The remaining Credit left that can be applied as payment on future Invoices
Clicking More Actions in the top right will give you the option to Export for Excel, or Print your Report.
